Is that a spare tire lock hanging down from one lug nut?

Is that spare tire lock rare or something special? I have that same thing on my '30 town sedan.

I appreciate the beautiful, hand lettering work that was done on this truck. Quills and air brush. And it's "TWO SIDED"! with rear doors.

Marty, I doubt it is rare. Just curious to make sure it was a lock....

Thumbs up Re: smells fishy

Dual sidemounts on the delivery! Uncommon, but not totally rare.

And all that artwork was done by hand! Wonder how long it took-now it would be done with a wrap.
